The National Monuments Service's description
On a SE-facing slope at the base of Slievenamom. Field reclaimed and under pasture. Ringfort (TS071-027----) visible 1.3km to E. Enclosure partially outlined by field boundaries on 1st (1840) ed. OS 6-inch map and depicted as a large roughly oval-shaped enclosure on 2nd (1901-05) ed. Monument has been levelled, however, undulations in the field appear to be the partial remains of the ploughed out enclosure. Though no clear pattern was discernible a much flattened broad curving bank (Wth c. 14m; int. H 0.05m; ext. H 0.67m) was visible in the SE quadrant of the enclosure.
